With below freezing temperatures last week and sneaking away and getting stuck (for an unexpected extended stay) in the mountains this week, it has been a little difficult to stick to all of my resolutions. Ahem... eating mostly clean, upping my vitamin intake, and sticking to a daily routine with my work and workouts.

When it is this cold and we are traveling with family and friends, it is always easiest to reach for fast and convenient food. Last month, I stopped in Pizzeria Locale for a quick pizza lesson by owner, Lachlan Machnnon - Patterson himself and some lovely Denver blogger friends. He taught us how to make his fluffy pizza dough that is made with simple, fresh ingredients, so when I have been reaching for the convenience of a quick slice recently, it doesn't seem nearly as indulgent. Jonny and I have made this dough several times since this fun lesson - I must admit it is not as pretty as it turned out with the help of Chef, but just as yummy! (Recipe below)
